Montana House kills bill on Native American voting rights

HELENA, Mont. (AP) The Montana House has killed legislation aimed at making it easier for Native Americans living on reservations to vote.
The bill would have required counties to maintain an alternate election office on reservations and negotiate days and operating hours with tribes. It would put into law the provisions of a 2014 settlement in a voting rights lawsuit that required three counties to open satellite voting offices on reservations twice a week in the month before Election Day.
It would also have put into law guidance issued by the Secretary of State’s Office directing other counties with tribal voters to comply with the settlement.
It’s an old, battle-tested design that still gets the job done. Meet the John Moses Browning graced the gun world with a wealth of amazing firearms, but his “final design” delivered – if not fully completed – something truly special. We’ve actually already done a nice video covering some of the variants. So here we will do something different and pay homage to a gun that lived a rough life and keeps on ticking. The Hi-Power became one of the most-serving military pistols in history, fighting on both sides of World War II and even making its way to the recent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. In fact, last we checked, the Canadian military was still working to replace their aging Inglis Hi-Powers from World War II.
